Formed in 2000, The Chap are known for their cheeky humor and indie-meets-electronica sound. The U.K. band count fellow genre-bending acts like Hot Chip and Teengirl Fantasy among their fans. Their early releases combined raucous guitars and driving Krautrock rhythms with synthpop hooks and indie-pop melodies, and those have remained key elements of the band's style, though The Chap's music has grown sleeker and more pop-friendly over time. But they've never lost their essential weirdness and deeply sarcastic wit, a combination that's earned them comparisons to Devo and Brian Eno.
